November 8 street date. Most of our stories about cult musicians who make an album or two and then seem to vanish are framed by grief, despair, and frayed ambition. Not so with Margo Guryan, an ardent jazz anomaly who disdained pop music until hearing "God Only Knows" in 1966, opening a window onto the wonders that form could contain. Only two years later, she released her own set of little pop symphonies, "Take A Picture", to great praise and expectation. But, having already divorced the hard-gigging valve trombonist Bob Brookmeyer, she declined to tour or even talk about it all that much, content even if her reticence meant "Take A Picture" was soon consigned to discount racks and cutout bins. She wrote and recorded for years to come, even collaborating with Neil Diamond's band, but mostly she seemed satisfied by her relatively private life. With a portion of proceeds being donated to providing and advocating for affordable reproductive health services, "Like Someone I Know" reinforces the strength of Guryan's songs by allowing a dozen different artists to take them for trips of their own. This tribute compilation features renditions of Margo Guryan songs by TOPS, Rahill, Clairo, June McDoom, MUNYA and Kainalu, Frankie Cosmos and Good Morning, Kate Bollinger, Pearl & the Oysters, Bedouine and Sylvie, Empress Of, Barrie, and Margo Price.
